Mail Bag

Shuffling through the mail the other day, I came across a letter with the return address “The White House, Washington D.C.” I was skeptical at first, but upon opening it, I found a note from the United States Press Secretary Tony Snow. To me! Hand-addressed and an actual signature! He and I have something in common–we both are colon cancer survivors. Here’s part of what he said “Thank you for taking the time to pull together literature about beating cancer. That’s one of the great things about being an American: people in this country just want to do the right thing for others. And having been the recipient of your kindness, I can assure you that I’m doing everything in my power to learn from and emulate your example.” Isn’t that cool?
